Have found the caring here extremely good with very few exceptions. Given as much freedom as possible, if you are reasonably independent. Activities are good and have some really good entertainment provided. The rooms are excellent and we have very lovely gardens with plenty of tables and chairs.

I attended Mayflower Court for the Jubilee party to visit a friend who lives there. What an amazing day we had. The staff put on such a wonderful experience, a lot of thought and effort was put into the day. It included all the residents and they all had so much fun. A very clean and well-presented
care home which I was very impressed with, staff were extremely helpful and again made it such a pleasant time. Such a wonderful day and the manager was very helpful showing us around the home and introducing us to staff members who take care of my friend. Well done Mayflower Court.

I was very pleased to see how well the management and staff worked to keep the home covid free during the difficult months of the covid pandemic. The team are now working hard to grow the important link with the families and friends as I have seen with the wonderful celebration of my mother’s 100th
Birthday involving all the staff and a beautiful birthday cake made by the chef and his very able kitchen team. This was followed by a garden party to celebrate the Queen’s platinum anniversary that brought together residents, family, friends and staff. My mother has been happy and well looked after by a concerned and caring team. I have been very grateful to this caring team.

Reply from Sam Henderson, Manager at Mayflower Court

Dad is 86 now and was placed in Mayflower Court on a 6 week programme after a hospital admission and has been here for 1 year now following an assessment of his needs. I cannot praise the home enough for what they have done for Dad and how happy is he here. His dementia has meant his speech and mobility
have deteriorated but the team ensured Dad kept moving for as long as possible. He smiles at all the staff and they really do look after his needs. I love visiting the home, it is warm, friendly and modern. He eats and drinks well and is always clean and tidy. The home keep me informed of any changes. My mind is put at ease knowing Dad is here and looked after 24/7.

My dad has dementia and was living at home, I had strong concerns about him moving into a care home. I met the deputy manager who showed me around and answered all my questions and reassured me that he would be given the personal care he required. My dad has now been at Mayflower Court for a few months
and it is the best decision I have made, the care and compassion he is receiving is exceptional, my dad has settled in very well. From the receptionist to the managers, I have received nothing but support. Whenever I have had any questions the deputy manager has got back to me very promptly with answers, I know he is now in a safer environment than living at home. A big thank you to all who have helped my dad settle in and providing him with the necessary support he needs.

My mum has been at Mayflower Court for 2 months now and I am so happy with the level of care she has received. Unfortunately, my mum suffers from dementia and living alone in her own home was no longer working for her, since joining Mayflower Court she has really blossomed and at times we see glimpses
of our mum as she was. I shall be forever indebted to the wonderful, caring staff. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff at Mayflower Court for their hard work and dedication in caring for my father. We were always concerned about how he would react to moving to a care home from his home in London (where he had lived for over 50 years). However, with the assistance
of the staff he quickly settled to life in Mayflower Court. He was able to make friends with the other residents and he enjoyed the activities organised by the staff. As far as he was concerned it was his home (he once explained to me that this was his house and he rented the rooms to the other residents!). Thank you.

My dad has been in Mayflower now for just over 2 weeks, he has dementia and needs a lot of care, I can see that he's getting the care and interaction he so really needs and I have seen a positive improvement in him, the staff are wonderful, one member of staff, in particular, is the best as my dad
has also taken a shine to her.
As a family, we did have our reservations about putting my dad into a care home, as I myself have worked in the industry and was not impressed with what I saw when working in the various places, but seeing for myself how caring they are, I know we have made the right decision.
I would recommend Mayflower Court care home to anyone that needed a place for their loved ones.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

October 5th was our brother's one year anniversary at Mayflower. He'd been hospitalised in 2020 after which his condition worsened, he lost most of his language and much of his mobility, and his needs became quite high. He'd been in a respite 'care' home - (where, in five weeks, he acquired bedsores)
- while we found an Anchor Home for him. To our great relief and gratitude, the manager and the team at Mayflower took him on and have done a wonderful job of rehabilitation. He was again in hospital on November 5th last year but has made a remarkable recovery.
He has put on weight, thanks to the special pureed presentation of his food, which he relishes, seems to drink sufficiently and, thanks to careful skin management, his bedsores are gone. Mayflower keeps in touch with us about all to do with him. He's up every day and we are now able to take him out for a walk to the common or to the shops, or the cafe for a coffee with us - something we only dreamed of in November last year. Thank u all so much!

I would really like to say a huge thank you to the team leader for helping my mother.
The staff were having problems encouraging her to wash etc. He kindly phoned me and came up with some brilliant ideas that I believe are working.
He is kind, informative, calm and very helpful both to me and Mum.
He’s
really well trained in his caring techniques and an absolute credit to your team and Mayflower Court.
Please send him my best wishes and a massive thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.792)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.792) out of 10 for Mayflower Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.792 for Mayflower Court is calculated as follows: ( (176 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.792

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mayflower Court is based on 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4, which has been reached with 18 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
